METHODS OF OPERATING WIRELESS EQUIPMENT AND WIRELESS ACCESS NETWORK NODES IN COMMUNICATION NETWORKS, WIRELESS EQUIPMENT, WIRELESS ACCESS NETWORK NODES, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIA

Abstract

This invention relates to a method of operating a wireless device (900) in a communication network. This method includes a step of obtaining (1100) a list of time-domain resource allocations (TDRAs) from a network node of a traditional network. This method also includes a step of obtaining (1102) downlink control information (DCI) to schedule a shared physical downlink channel (PDSC11) for reception by the wireless device and a step of selecting (1104) a TDRA from the list of TDRAs based on the obtained DC1. The above method also includes the step of determining (1106) the PDSCH transmission scheme comprising one or more transmission points (TRP - Transmission point) based on the number of PDSCII transmission repeats configured for the selected TDRA. The invention also relates to a wireless device.Operating method of radio access network node in a communication network, radio access network node, and storage media readable by a computer-based relay.
